Ahhhh... It only supports two IDE drives... I had the same problem, so I took out the CD-ROM and replaced it with a scsi CD-Rom from an older Mac. Does your machine have a Zip drive by any chance? I really never had any luck trying to boot from floppies on the Beige G3, but if we could construct a Mac rescue disk with BootX you'll be in business very quickly. -- -- mark at outlook dot net ----------------------------------------------------------------- -- Outlook Technologies is in *no way* affiliated with Microsoft -- Corporation or their product Microsoft Outlook(r). -----------------------------------------------------------------
